Members of the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego’s two collectors groups voted Wednesday night on which of six pieces by a list of artists that also included Rashid Johnson, Frank Benson and Sam Durant the museum should acquire. The works were purchased with approximately $190,000 in funds raised from a portion of the groups’ membership dues.

The selections matched the choices of U-T San Diego readers who voted online for their favorites, but in the opposite order. Opie’s photographic triptych was the readers’ favorite while Finch’s light-based work came in third.

Of the six works, those three were also the most conventional (with the possible exception of Finch’s installation, which had the advantage of being installed in the museum’s La Jolla location since last fall).
